I think you already dealt with the hard-coded locations in the current
makefile in the optional package.  Its unclear to me what else needs
to be done in that regard.

I will communicate with David Avis about adding make check targets
upstream, and whether the 2006 is the "latest and greatest".  I
strongly suspect that it is - the recent changes just add on a little
functionality, the primary algorithm has been stable for a while.

At the moment I am not using it as a library.  In the future it would
make sense to do so though - I think Sébastien Barthélemy is working
on converting my crude cddlib interface to a library use, and I hope
to fully understand what he does so that I can do similar things with
lrs.

I don't understand the LLP64 issues you are referring to - is that a
problem for a windows port or would it affect other things?  If you
can clarify a bit what causes those issues I am willing to try to fix
them for lrs.
